And I realised that I’ve soaked nearly 30 hours into this playthrough and I’ve gotten hardly anywhere in the main quest line and only done one of the DLCs (Mothership Zeta) so far… so what’s taking me so long?

Well, the first map below is what the vanilla Fallout 3 map looks like, the second image is my modded version.

Just look at all those place markers! That’s the power of mods… worryingly as you can see I’ve hardly scratched the surface of the Capital Wasteland in this game so far! I fear that one I’ve fully explored this, I may have set a new record!
